A biography of a German American family who grew wealthy from their Philadelphia beer brewing company in the late nineteenth century. Heirs to the renowned German-American Bergdoll Beer fortune at a young age, the Bergdoll boys used their millions to become champion race car drivers and pioneer aviation heroes in the early 1900s. Grover, the most notorious, is celebrated for his daring record-setting flights in a Wright Brothers airplane. Erwin drives a powerful Benz to win a prestigious motor car race, the equivalent of the Daytona 500. Then, just as Grover is trying to buy a bigger plane to set more records and attempt to fly to Europe a decade before Lindbergh, they’re snared by vengeful local military draft officials. Running and hiding from their war duty, the fugitives are so reviled by nationalistic Americans that two older brothers change their names to avoid infamy. Eluding capture for years with financial help from their wealthy German Mutter, the Bergdoll boys are entangled with kidnapping and murder, federal agents and bounty hunters, Nazis, and Congressional investigators, and an incredible story of release and escape from an Army jail with bribery, all the way up to the White House to search for buried gold. Hounded by the unsympathetic press and public, and congress, the Bergdoll fortune is confiscated by the federal government. Their doting mother gets into pistol shootouts with agents trying to search their mansions and country estates. Grover remains one step ahead of bungling lawmen by hiding in Germany and secretly traveling into and out of America on fake passports and producing kinderreiche Familie with his attractive German wife.

In The Secret of Bergdoll Mansion, The Chubs Boys decide to build their own boat so they can cross the dangerous Creek, explore the Mansion and perhaps even find the buried treasure within. This is the first book in The Adventures of The Chubs Boys series and it is a classic tale of excitement and adventure. The Chubs Boys favorite secret place to go after school was down to the creek. Darby Creek was a long winding water way that lead all the way into the city and was surrounded by woods and lots of wild animals. On the other side of the creek, on top of the hill, stood Bergdoll Mansion, the abandoned, haunted castle that The Chubs Boys longed to explore. But, unless you had a boat, there was no way to get to the Mansion. We grew up in a magical town outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania called Havertown. My name is Gary and my best friend Chubs lived right behind me with his little brother Scotty. Together, the three of us formed an adventure group called the Chubs Boys.
